　　原题再现：In some countries around the world men and women are having children late in life. What are the reasons for this development? What are the effects on society and family life?

　　范文指导：

　　Advanced modern medical science allows young people to start a family in their 30’s or 40’s and this has become a lifestyle in many major cities.

　　The reasons for this trend may involve educational, professional and emotional factors. Women nowadays receive longer education, sometimes until they are turning 30 and this accordingly leads to late childbirth. A promising career may be another main cause of postponed motherhood. It cannot be denied that life and work are not easily balanced, especially for young people with little working experience. In addition, when climbing up a career ladder, not many young people have the chance to establish a stable marriage which is regarded as a significant condition for child rearing.

　　Admittedly, there can be some advantages for young people to delay their childbearing. Being ready to be parents may make better mothers and fathers because they would devote more time and energy to their family than their younger counterparts. After waiting for years for a baby to come along, more mature parents are more likely to deliver quality family education to their baby. Another advantage of late parents is financial security which is deemed to exert positive influence on child raising.

　　However, before they are able to have their baby, they may have to face some pregnancy problems such as low fertility, higher risk of diseases and genetic disorder. All these problems can sound overwhelming to first-time parents. Not only being confronted with health challenges at midlife, but these couples also have to deal with their retirement life as they would not be supported by their children when they are old. From the society perspective, later conception in life can decrease the birth rate and labour force can be in short in the near future.

　　In conclusion, the reasons for deferring maternity to midlife are largely attributed to working women and the drawbacks seem to outweigh the benefits. Although parents may be more prepared for a new family member, they have to take more risks of health of both mothers and babies. Meanwhile the society has to suffer from labour shortage.（348 words）
